No & NO! [not a serious matter]
Doing so is an act of self-incrimination; knowing that we too ARE sinners
Pray very much for God to stay close to you

The beating of the chest is relatively new since it didn’t happened before the liturgical changes a few years ago.
(However, it is a sign or remorse which stretches back for millenia.)
To be a mortal sin, one must 1. commit a grave (serious) wrong; 2. one must understand that it is gravely wrong; and 3. one must fully intend to commit the gravely wrong aspect of the act.
Avoiding beating one’s chest at Mass is not seriously wrong; therefore it is not a mortal sin right off the bat.
